Question
Answer
cell membrane   The membrane that surrounds all the cytoplasm of a cell.  
🗑
selectively permeable   Allowing only certain molecules to pass through.  
🗑
passive transport   The passage of substances across a membrane without the use of cellular energy.  
🗑
diffusion   The movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration; a form of passive transport.  
🗑
osmosis   The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane.  
🗑
active transport   The passage of particles through a membrane, requiring the use of cellular energy.  
🗑
cell wall   A rigid structure manufactured by certain organisms and secreted to the exterior of the cell membrane; plants, fungi, and bacteria have cell walls.  
🗑
organelle   The parts of a cell that perform many of the functions needed to keep the cell alive.  
🗑
mitochondria   The cellular organelles in which aerobic respiration occurs to release usable energy from food.  
🗑
endoplasmic reticulum   A cellular organelle consisting of a network of membranes; enables substances to be transported throughout the cell.  
🗑
ribosome   A cellular organelle that directs the assembling of proteins.  
🗑
Golgi apparatus   A cellular organelle that collects chemicals from the cytoplasm, processes them, and secretes them.  
🗑
vacuole   A membrane-bound sac that contains various substances, including water and wastes, within a cell.  
🗑
lysosome   An organelle that contains digestive enzymes.  
🗑
chloroplast   A cellular organelle that contains chlorophyll and other pigments; the organelle in which photosynthesis occurs.  
🗑
cilia   Short hairlike extensions from a cell membrane; aid in movement.  
🗑
flagella   Long hairlike extensions from a cell membrane; aid in movement.  
🗑
nucleus   The cellular organelle that contains the chromosomes; control center of the cell.  
🗑
chromosome   A strand of DNA with associated proteins; usually found in the nucleus of a cell; the basis of heredity.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
